I ran anywhere from 3 to 13 miles quite regularly or do about 30 minutes minimum on my elliptical when I can't get go running. I foresee getting a BL with BA 400 silicone around end November early December. How soon after can I resume these activities. Are these two forms of exercise "safe" for someone after this surgery long term? Thanks
Answer: Exercise After Breast Lift The challenge of doing breast lifts with implants is to keep the implant up high. Dropping of the implant and breast tissue can occur too soon in my experience, so I try and get patients to limit impact type exercises for 3 months or so. That indcludes running, boot camp, etc. Stairmaster, elliptical, treadmill and spin are all low impact and may be good substitutes while you heal.

Answer: Cardio Exercise Following your Procedures In regards to #cardio workouts, its best you do not begin light aerobic #exercise for 3 weeks and strenuous exercise for at least 6 weeks, following your #BreastSurgery. Let your body tell you what it can tolerate. You make take gentle walks within a few days following your #surgery. Light #activity may be started 7-10 days after surgery. If your work keeps you sedentary, you may return whenever you feel up to it. If your work is strenuous, wait until your work activity does not cause any superficial pain.It is always recommended to call and see your surgeon to discuss your #healing concerns.

Answer: 4 weeks I would speak with your surgeon since everyone has his or her own post-op protocol, but I advise my patients to wait at least 4 weeks before returning to vigorous exercise. Best, Dr. Nazarian

Answer: Running after breast augmentation Thank you for your question. You definitely want to follow your own surgeon's post-op activity instructions. This is a general guide I give to my patients:

Answer: Activity After Breast Lift with Implants Thanks for your question!I'm sure if you asked ten surgeons this questions, you might possibly get anywhere form 5-10 different answers. Prior to 4 weeks, I ask patients to walk as much as they want but refrain from anything more. Aerobic exercise that does not involve significant impact or straining such as low level elliptical training would be acceptable at 4 weeks. I think most surgeons would agree however that any high impact or high intensity exercises such as distance running or weight-lifting should be avoided for a minimum of 6 and in some cases closer to 8 weeks postoperatively. Given that implants typically settle by 3 months, some surgeons might even suggest waiting out to 12 weeks before these higher stress activities.Obviously the best course of action is to follow the guidance of your surgeon. Hope you find this helpful!

Answer: Exercises after breast surgery, some advices: Thank you very much for this interesting enquire.Postoperative care after a Breast Augmentation are very important to get the best results.Generally speaking, the average Breast Augmentation patients, exercises tend to allow two weeks after PO, gradually: first, gentle walks without sweating, then, you can go to the gym to do aerobics, and, after four months you can stats with machines excercise and start with light weights, and, if there are no problems, only six months after PO may charge "free weights".Respectfully, Dr. Emmanuel Mallol.-
